Ah, November, when the weather turns cooler and the playoffs draw near. The regular season ended this weekend with some teams that didn't make the postseason finishing on a positive note, such as Boca Ciega and Pinellas Park. Both teams reached .500 and are bowl eligible. Other playoff-bound teams continued to gain momentum heading into their first-round games. The recap from Week 11:

Brandon Vazquez, East Lake: Scored three touchdowns in the fourth quarter to lead the Eagles' comeback against Nature Coast.

Wyatt Wikle, Tarpon Springs: Threw second-half touchdowns of 85 and 64 yards to help the Spongers reach 40 points for the fourth time this season.

Cedric Williams, Dixie Hollins: Gained 180 yards on 21 carries and scored three times, including a 45-yarder that put the Rebels ahead at halftime.

DeJuan Wright, Keswick Christian: Almost single-handily brought the Crusaders back from 14 points down against Shorecrest, returning a kickoff 83 yards for a score and running 44 yards for another.

Offensive player of the week

Myrick Gwyn, Largo: Was instant offense against Palm Harbor University, touching the ball eight times and producing four scores. The senior had the Packers' first four touchdowns — two rushing, two receiving — and gained 131 yards.

Defensive player of the week

Emmerson Clarke, Boca Ciega: Scooped up a fumble deep in Pirates' territory and outraced the Gibbs offense 88 yards for the decisive score in a one-point victory.
